REVERSE ROTATION DETECTION IN ROTATING MACHINERY

A system includes a sensor (120) configured to monitor rotating machinery (112) and generate a signal based on a physical characteristic of the rotating machinery (112). The system also includes a monitoring system (126) with a processor (128). The processor of (128) the monitoring system (126) is c...

More Information
Summary:A system includes a sensor (120) configured to monitor rotating machinery (112) and generate a signal based on a physical characteristic of the rotating machinery (112). The system also includes a monitoring system (126) with a processor (128). The processor of (128) the monitoring system (126) is configured to receive the signal from the sensor (120). The processor (128) determines an occurrence of reverse rotation of the rotating machinery (124) by comparing the signal to a normal operating pattern to generate an initial value. The processor (128) generates a notification signal (136) indicating the occurrence of a reverse rotation.
